I put a teleflex on my 14′ lone star Malibu and it works great. No more squeaks and loose cable one minute and tight the next. I also had some cable that got rusty under the plastic cover and it broke and that was a surprise. Reminded me of the time when I was a pup and I was toolen along with my big brothers fat 50 on a 15′ Borum wooden boat. I thought I was king for a day and all of a sudden the nut and pulley on the back of the searing wheel that the cable wraps around fell off. WOW! talk about a quick right turn. Small wonder I wasn’t thrown out of the boat. To this day I don’t know why the motor quit. Do what you want but every modern boat comes with some sort of cable steering.
